TIRANA, July 8 – Officials in the Prosecutor’s office have concluded that the presence of cocaine in a bottle of wine killed a man and a woman while lunching at seaside restaurants. Tomi Rrumbullaku and Dina Xibraku died earlier this year in Golem after having lunch at a restaurant. The laboratory tests indicated that the wine bottle had been used to store some 150 grams of cocaine in an effort to smuggle the drug into the country through a fast postage service.
